Tortilla Soup
What Is Tortilla Soup? Tortilla soup is a classic Mexican soup made with a tomato (or chicken) base. It usually has ingredients like corn, beans, and often other additions like jalapenos and cilantro. It is simmered, then topped with crispy tortilla strips and whatever you’d like to add.
